I just always loved stand-up. It's like magic. You say something, and a whole room full of people laughs together. Say something else, they laugh again. The fact that people come to see that and participate in that... I don't know, it's just like magic.

I like the purity of stand-up because it is all about whether people laugh at your jokes. Either they laugh or they don't.

I got into stand-up because I love stand-up. Specifically in stand-up, I love jokes. I love short, structured ideas and a punch line.

Stand up is really fun because if I think of a joke or a funny idea, then I can just go and tell some people and if they laugh, they laugh right away.

Part of doing stand-up is to get things off your chest. It's a bit like being in a psychiatrist's chair - but more enjoyable.

Oh, I love stand-up.

But I love stand-up, and it's where I came from creatively, so it's something I never want to walk away from.

The best part about stand-up is that you control everything. Period. When you work in movies, or on TV shows, there are 50 other people involved.

I love stand up and it keeps me grounded, to say the stuff I have been thinking without anyone changing it.
